Teenage neighbours

[freudisfrozen]

I have younger neighbours who moved in two years ago. I detest them. They have no carpets so I can hear them and their kid's every move (I would be able to tell you exactly when they get up). They are nocturnal - up till 4 or 5 in the morning, which is in a way a god send because it is quiet before I go to work. Just saw the boy/Dad come in and he howked up spit just by kitchen window as he passed (charming). I cannot stand another summer of listening to both them and their other teenage mates congregate in the garden. Would I be unreasonable to start putting flyers through their door highlighting the homeswapper service, in the hope that they move? Everyone else in this area is older - 30s/40s/50s.
How can I get them out?

Referring to their age is one thing, referring to him as a "dad/boy" is condescending and rude.

If they're on final warnings from the Housing Assoc then surely you aren't the only one complaining? Complain a bit more to the HA and they'll either improve or be kicked out.

What you have described, while obviously a bit annoying, isnt actually doing any harm to anyone.

How do you know they are on their last warning? have they told you? if so you are obviously on speaking terms so just ask them to keep it down a bit. Or is a bit of neighbourhood gossip so therefore probably not true ?

I do love a bit of competitive nonjudgementalism.

OP they sound like horrible neighbours. Making noise through the night and gobbing up spit sounds delightful and I'm not surprised you want rid.

I don't get why you're not allowed to mention age. Its not like you've suggested that they are crap neighbours solely down to their age. Keep reporting them to the HA if they are on their last warning then they've not just pissed off you.

Some people are shit tennants and shit neighbours and its not fun living next door to them.

OP no point vetting arsey, you described their age in a very patronising way 'dad/boy'. If they were in their thirties would you have said 'dad/30 something man'? Accept criticism on this basis or risk losing all credibility.

I can empathise with the noisy neighbour thing, mine have never been you g if that helps. Some people are considerate, others aren't, regardless of age.

I accept that there is a risk in speaking to them about it, they may react badly, but how much worse can it get? Also the flyers through the door is ridiculous, passive aggressive & bound to get their backs up anyway.

If you're unhappy, perhaps you can move. If this isn't an option, then you have to at least try talking to them or you'll seem like a nob.

Also the thread title isn't 'noisy neighbours' it's 'teenage neighbours'

I agree, the fact that they are 'crap' neighbours is not necessarily down to their age. I'm sure there are plenty of people who have older 'crap' neighbours.
A few years ago, the house next door to us was rented out to a couple who were 19. It is a 4 bedroom house and we all thought Oh no -party, party party. How wrong could we be. The only visitors we ever saw were their parents. Apparently, they were just seeing of they could afford the rent before committing to a mortgage elsewhere. They moved out after 12 months, we were sorry to see them go as we hardly knew they were there.

I'm 23 and I am a bloody good neighbour!!!

My 50+ neighbour is a nightmare! 2.30am he was up 'getting down with the kids' on Friday night' . He was the problem, they did not know any better!

Again I will say I am a bloody good neighbour!!!!!!

I think its just plain rude to shove something through their letterbox. Just speak to them like normal grown ups would do. If that fails call the council!
